I've had a similar experience, most people in the game are either the "Lol, wut?" type, who just stare at you and then run off, or they ask you questions about how it works. Every once in a while you get someone with a large pole up their rear about it, usually in /Trade.

The Forums get all the crying and gnashing of teeth and nerd rage, because that's what the forums have been infested with - the bitter, jealous, complaining, resentful, childish players who care more about getting attention or demanding they be catered to. The average player was driven out years ago by it. Most of my friends who play don't go there, ever, because they know it's just more trade channel bullies and jerks.

I like to poke them with sharp sticks, it's free entertainment, and maybe if they get tired of being proven wrong and made fun of foe being such egotistical jerks, there will be more room for reasonable, intelligent people. They're the ones who made the forums a virtual PvP fight, so I feel *zero* guilt at bringing the game right back at them, and mashing their faces into the sandbox.

Plus, it's fun. Crank them up a few notches so they lose it and drop the charade of being about "fairness" and "ethics", and they reveal their REAL agenda, selfishness. It's a great way to wake up, have a cup of good coffee, and provoke a few mouthbreathers into a froth. Just like PvP, if half of the other team isn't hunting me down in anger, I'm slacking. Most of them have anger control issues anyway, it's not hard.

You could give every one of them everything they want, and they'd still be there complaining.
I only started to get a lot of hate since I started multiboxing in battlegrounds. Eye of the Storm in my battlegroup was the only battleground alliance was mostly winning. While horde dominated all other battlegrounds. I've done about 40 Eye of the Storms now, and only lost 3 so far. Alliance have been acting up like a bunch of lil whiners to me now. :P
